The story
Sound has been the throughline all her life.
Vanessa Fernandez is a certified Biofield Tuning practitioner, vocal coach and sound therapist based on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia. Two decades in music and media led her here — to the intimate, precise work of reading the body's electromagnetic field.
Before this was a practice, it was already a thread she could feel — the way sounds landed in the body, an ability to sense what lives beneath words, and in the silence between them.
Vanessa won her first national talent competition at twelve. By her early twenties she was anchoring morning radio, then programme-directing across Asia Pacific — scripting, curating, producing, learning which sounds resonated and which ones stayed with people.
Her years in broadcasting made one thing clear: sound is physical. It changes breathing before anyone notices. It shifts mood before language catches up.
The more Vanessa worked with sound, the more she wanted to know what it was actually doing in the body. She started reading — nervous system research, ancient wisdom traditions, the emerging science of bioelectromagnetism and coherence, and the territory where psychology meets spirituality.
When Vanessa found Eileen McKusick's work on Biofield Tuning, she recognised a framework for what she'd been sensing for years. She trained and got certified.
Healing isn't about fixing what's broken. It's about unwinding what's been held.

How the work moves now.
Vanessa runs a 1:1 Biofield Tuning practice from Mona Vale, on Sydney's Northern Beaches. Sessions are in-person or online — the field is readable at a distance, and clients report the same depth of shift either way.
She brings activated tuning forks onto the body and in the field surrounding it. Where the tone changes, something is held — the work is to locate and release. Her voice moves through this too — an instrument for unwinding what language can't quite reach.
Most describe deep, almost trance-like relaxation. A calmer nervous system at the end than the one that walked in. For some, emotions surface — and that's held as part of the process.
What needs to move through is given space to be witnessed and expressed. The body selects what it needs; Vanessa's part is to listen, and follow. Many feel a meaningful shift after one session; three to five supports lasting change.
Outside Biofield Tuning, Vanessa runs vocal toning and embodiment workshops, sound journeys, breathwork and retreats through Stellar Sound.
Training & credentials
It would be my privilege to support you.
Book a session in person at Mona Vale, or online from anywhere. If something in this is resonating, a session will tell you more than words can. More of her thinking is in the journal.
